南非统计机构对数据序列进行了重新基准化,以更新其衡量国内生产总值的方式,并完善了对包括非法采矿在内的未观测经济活动的估算,此后该国经济规模比先前估计的大4.9%。

Africa’s economy is 4.9% larger than previously estimated after the country’s statistics agency rebased the data series to update the way that it measures gross domestic product, and refined its estimates of unobserved economic activity including illegal mining.

南非统计局周四在首都比勒陀利亚发布的数据显示,2022年按现价计算的GDP为7万亿兰特(4210亿美元),而此前公布的数据为6.7万亿兰特。

GDP at current prices stood at 7 trillion rand ($421 billion) in 2022, compared with 6.7 trillion rand previously reported, data published by Statistics South Africa in the capital, Pretoria, on Thursday showed.

该统计机构根据2022年的生产模式重新计算了GDP的数值,并赋予一些行业更大的权重,以更好地反映经济结构。

The statistics agency recalculated the value of GDP based on production patterns in 2022, with some sectors being assigned larger weights to better reflect the structure of the economy.

尽管扩张在各行业普遍存在,但重新基准化后采矿业增长最多,其对经济的贡献提高了12.5%。该统计机构表示,这主要是因为将非法采矿纳入统计并改善了其覆盖范围;随着金价飙升,非法采矿在南非迅速蔓延。

Though the expansion was broad-based across sectors, mining grew the most after the rebasing, lifting its contribution to the economy by 12.5%. The statistics agency said this was primarily due to the inclusion and better coverage of illegal mining, which has proliferated in South Africa as the price of gold has soared.

权重扩大第二大的行业是金融、房地产和商业服务业,提高了9.1%。

The second-largest sector weighting expansion was in finance, real estate and business services, which increased by 9.1%.

未观测经济(包括非正规经济的一部分,并包括非法和违法活动)的贡献从先前的7.3%上升至8.7%。

The contribution of the unobserved economy, which includes some parts of the informal economy and includes illicit and illegal activities, increased to 8.7%, from 7.3% previously.
